What's your favorite Django app?

On Twitter, I asked, “what’s your favorite third-party Django app?” Eight hours later, I’ve got about 50 replies.

I meant the question to be fairly open-ended – I deliberately didn’t clarify what I meant by “favorite” – and I’m not that popular, so this is by no means an accurate sample of the Django community. Still, the answers are a bit interesting, so let’s take a look:

The winners

The favorite was… (drumroll please)… South. By a landslide, actually: about a third of the folks who responded chose South. I’m not particularly surprised: schema migration is a problem most users face, and Django doesn’t have anything in core to handle it. But that’s another show.
